Ubuntu 10.04 Released

One of the more prominent and popular Linux distribution out there, Ubuntu, gets a much-needed visual redesign with the new version 10.04. Gone is the less than attractive default brown theme, replaced by an aubergine wallpaper. Other major improvements too are better social networking integration and a cloud synchronization service.

Ars Technica - Canonical has announced the official release of Ubuntu 10.04, codenamed Lucid Lynx. After six months of development, the stealthy cat has emerged from the jungle and is ready to leap onto users' desktops. The new version of the popular Linux distribution delivers a visual refresh, updated software, and a number of noteworthy new features.
